Host Name:
Dick Gemeinhardt
Long 60-foot unit trains are the norm here on this layout, plus long passenger trains. Highlights include a 24 foot model circus, airport, winter sports area, large grain elevator, campground, cemetery, and town scenes. And a 20-foot 6-track passenger station, plus stub ended business car tracks and a passenger train car wash. Staging area uses a 16-foot long 16-track yard. Bring your video and photo cameras! Various versions of the Roaring Western Gorge RR have existed since the 1970's- the current version was once part of a large modular RR club, but is now permanently installed in the Gemeinhardt basement.
